Abstract excerpt
In this article, we review the current knowledge of the inherited genetics of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) susceptibility and clinical outcome. We focus on recent developments in identifying low-penetrance susceptibility genes and the role of the Ovarian Cancer Association Consortium (OCAC) in these discoveries. The OCAC was established to facilitate large-scale replication analyses for reported genetic...
